So what did you do to your Truck Camper today?
I saw these threads in some of the other Open Roads RV Forums, but didn't see one for TCs. I'll start... I installed Interior LED puck lights and a 12v power outlet.

Yesterday, I heard that the place that is going to rebuild my TC had a fire. Lentz RV Repair, Tacoma...going to call them and find out what is going on, if I am going to be able to get in or what! Pics show a MH pulled out the is 7/8 burned, Looked new!
Also for the past week I have been charging the truck bats as it would start..DAH!!! The charger said it was topped off on both...in goes the key and the dash lights up and the heater statrs and the fuel pump kicks on and everything goes dark...So I put charger on START function and got a click at the starter...Hauled them out in the drizzle and down to Budget Battery...tested and each bat had dead cells...the funny thing is both battery cells that were dead were at the end of the battery next to the firewall, which puts one cell at the POS end and the other battery cel at the NEG end...funny!
Any ideas, why?
Dropped them in and voila she fires right up...They were over 4 years and were 5 year bats, so I got prorated purcahse, instead of 119 each I got them for 83 each...of course they are my go to battery place...will get my two new batteries for the TC battery upgrade to 4 this year too...they'll do the custom wires as well...great place!
